Abstract A high pressure steamer for high hygro-thermic treatment of a cloth material, comprising a drum body which is capable of maintaining a high humid heat of 110° to 160° C. therein and is arranged to continuously introduce the cloth material thereinto and to guide it out therefrom, a cloth material transporting mechanism which conveys the cloth material in a no tension and relaxed state and a slow cooling tank which gradually cools the conveyed cloth material down to about 50° C. The high pressure steamer incorporates therein a monomer recovering mechanism wherein, between the end part of the cloth material transporting mechanism and the slow cooling tank, there is provided a washing tank for washing off a monomer sticking to the cloth material, which is made of, for example, polyester fiber. The washing tank is equipped with a waste liquid discharge pipe arranged to guide to the outside of the high pressure steamer a washing treatment liquid which contains the monomer washed off the cloth material.
A high pressure steamer for high hygro-thermic treatment of a cloth material comprising a drum body which is capable of maintaining a high humid heat of 110° to 160° C. therein and which is arranged with means to continuously introduce said cloth material thereinto and guide it out therefrom, a cloth material transporting mechanism within said high pressure steamer which conveys the cloth material in a no tension and relaxed state through the high humid heat atmosphere within said high pressure steamer and a slow cooling tank within said high pressure downstream of the transporting mechanism which gradually cools the conveyed cloth material down to a temperature of about 50° C., said high pressure steamer further including therein a monomer recovery mechanism located between the end part of the transporting mechanism and the slow cooling tank, the monomer recovering mechanism comprising a washing tank for washing off a monomer sticking to the cloth material, the washing tank being equipped with a waste liquid discharging pipe to guide to the outside of said drum body a washing treatment liquid which contains said monomer washed from said cloth material.
